Review on π» Targus PA070U USB Mobile Port Replicator: Enhanced Connectivity Solution for Mobile Users by Eric Schwalbe
Not as PDA compatible as advertised
I bought this unit to connect my Palm V serial port cradle to my new laptop which only has USB ports. Not the best choice. The device "has" a MANUAL RESET BUTTON that must be pressed for 5 seconds each time the computer wakes up from sleep mode to restart the ports. Its drivers aren't smart enough to do it themselves. (Forget putting the hub out of sight to clear up the mess.) Even with the reset button, I often had to kill and restart the Palm Hotsync manager to get it to communicate with the Palm. The device also requires its own power supply, which makes the desk cluttered. Avoid this device unless you really need all the ports
